Crow’s General Store, Riding Mountain National Park and maybe the Disvovery Centre.

Forgot about Crow's. Awesome!

Daly House Museum and garden, Assiniboine Food Forest trails and Crows General Store and I'd take them for a walk around some of the heritage buildings around Stanley Park and the downtown core ending up at the Prairie Firehouse.

I suppose that depends on your audience, but 3 places that have some interesting historical significance include:  
 
1. Commonwealth Air Training Plan Museum  
 
2. Prairie Firehouse  
 
3. Rideau Park (The Brandon Court House & Jail, built in 1883, is a provincially designated site. The renovated court house-jail is now a dominant feature of Rideau Park Personal Care Home. The site's designation applies to the 2 1/2-storey court house & the parcel of land on which it sits. The 1st & only woman to be executed in Manitoba’s history occurred here in 1899.)

My choices would be:  
Grey Owls Cabin at RMNP  
RCA Museum Shilo  
CIS BB or VB at BU

I will get a lot of laughs at me but where is this crows general store of which you all speak of?

Here you go:  
 
E, 33 17th St. East,, 33 17th St, Brandon, MB R7A 4Z1  
 
Take Rosser Avenue east all the way until it ends it will turn left then Crow’s is the first right.

Thanks Dozer, I will check that place out.
